With a frequency of 96 % among the female population, Guinea reaches the second position (after Somalia) in the world ranking regarding female genital mutilations. This TM project aims at mapping Lelouma Prefecture in the Moyenne Region in central Guinea where prevalence of subsequent health issues is very high. Please map buildings, streets, roads and any point of interest that can be identified through the satellite imagery. OSM Guinea plans to go and map in the field there in a close future.

About the Tasking Manager

OSM Tasking Manager is a mapping tool designed and built for the Humanitarian OSM Team collaborative mapping. The purpose of the tool is to divide up a mapping job into smaller tasks that can be completed rapidly. It shows which areas need to be mapped and which areas need the mapping validated. This approach facilitates the distribution of tasks to the various mappers in a context of emergency. It also permits to control the progress and the homogeneity of the work done (ie. Elements to cover, specific tags to use, etc.).
